HMK-1600 Zipper Pouch Packing Machine – Horizontal Doypack Form Fill Seal Line
The HMK-1600 zipper pouch packing machine forms, fills and seals resealable zipper doypacks, stand-up pouches and flat bags directly from roll film. Mitsubishi servo film transport, SUS304 stainless steel frame and dual filling stations deliver stable output of 20–50 bags/min for powders, granules, pet food and snacks.

What Is the HMK-1600 Zipper Pouch Packing Machine?
The HMK-1600 is a horizontal form-fill-seal (HFFS) zipper pouch packing machine manufactured by INMAYPACK in Shanghai, China. It forms zipper doypacks, stand-up pouches and flat bags from roll film, then fills and seals them at 20–50 bags per minute, handling pouches from 80×120 mm up to 160×280 mm and fill volumes up to 1000 ml.
Unlike premade pouch machines, the HMK-1600 forms resealable zipper pouches in-line from roll film. Compare this route with a quoted premade-pouch system using the confirmed film, zipper, tooling, startup scrap, labor, changeover loss and accepted output. The final zipper-sealing, opening and temperature-control arrangement must be confirmed for the submitted pouch and product.
The machine ships with two filling stations and accepts auger screw fillers, piston pumps, measuring cups or multihead weighers, making it suitable for protein powder, corn grits, spices, pet food, dried fruit, candy and oatmeal.

How the HMK-1600 Zipper Pouch Packing Machine Works
One continuous horizontal line turns a roll of laminated film into filled, sealed, resealable zipper doypacks in six stations:
Film Unwinding
Auto unwinder with splice alarm feeds roll film (max ø500 mm, width 640 mm).
Pouch Forming
Film is folded and formed into doypack shape with bottom gusset.
Zipper & Bottom Seal
Zipper strip is applied and sealed; bottom seal pressure adjusts by handle.
Side Seal & Cutting
Double hot + soft sealing on both sides, then pouches are cut apart.
Opening & Filling
Vacuum cups + gripper assist open the pouch; 2 stations dose the product.
Top Seal & Output
Final top sealing, date coding option, then out via 1.8 m conveyor.
Because the pouch is formed in-line from roll film, changing bag size means loading a recipe on the touch screen — the servo film transport adjusts pull length automatically, so one HMK-1600 covers your whole size range from 80×120 mm to 160×280 mm.
6 Engineering Features That Keep Your Zipper Pouch Line Running
Every HMK-1600 zipper doypack packing machine is built around uptime, seal integrity and fast changeover — the three factors that decide real production cost per bag.
Mitsubishi Servo Film Transport
Servo-controlled film pulling adjusts bag length directly on the touch screen. Speed changes need one input — no mechanical re-adjustment — slashing changeover time and film waste.
Dedicated Zipper Seal Station
A separate zipper sealing unit with handle-adjustable pressure produces smooth, airtight resealable closures. Combined hot + soft double sealing makes side seals firm and cosmetic-grade.
Pouch Formed From Roll Film
Forms zipper doypacks in-line from a single film roll. Evaluate this route against the quoted premade-pouch solution using the confirmed film, zipper, tooling, startup scrap, labor, changeover loss and accepted output.
One-Screen Temperature & Recipe Control
High-precision temperature modules replace analog controllers — all seal temperatures, bag recipes and speeds are stored and recalled from the HMI for repeatable quality.
Vacuum Bag Opening + Mechanical Assist
Vacuum suction cups plus gripper-and-squeegee assist open every pouch reliably before filling — optional air blast for stubborn films — minimizing reject rate at high speed.
Sanitary SUS304 Build, Planned Maintenance
The selected stainless-steel construction, motors and direct-drive gearboxes can reduce some routine service tasks, but inspection, lubrication where specified, cleaning and wear-part replacement remain part of the approved preventive-maintenance plan.
Build Your HMK-1600 Line: Feeders, Coding & Inspection Options
The base machine ships with two auger screw feeders and a 1.8 m outlet conveyor. Add upstream and downstream modules to run a complete, hands-off zipper pouch line:
Screw Elevator
Automatically lifts powder or granules from floor-level hoppers into the filler — no ladder, no manual scooping.
Extra Auger Feeder / Spirals & Cups
Additional auger units, spiral sizes and feeder cups for fast product changeover between doses.
Powder Dust Remover / Collector
Standard or recyclable dust collection keeps seal areas clean — critical for airtight zipper seals on fine powders.
Thermal Transfer or UV Laser Printer
Print batch numbers, best-before dates and QR codes directly on the film before forming.
Inline Checkweigher
3–1000 g range, ±0.5 g accuracy at up to 80 pcs/min, with air-pusher rejection of off-weight pouches and full weight logging.
Multihead Weigher
10/14-head combination weigher for snacks, dried fruit, candy and pet food at maximum accuracy.
Piston Pump / Measuring Cup
Alternative dosing systems for pastes, sauces bases and free-flowing granules on the same 2-station platform.
Euro Slot, Tear Notch, Air Blast
Pneumatic punching for hanging holes and tear notches; air-blast bag opening assist for stubborn films.
What Can the HMK-1600 Pack?
One platform, multiple dosing systems: pair the two filling stations with auger fillers for powder, multihead weighers for granules, or piston pumps for thick products.
Powders
Protein powder, milk powder, corn grits, flour, spices — with optional dust remover and screw elevator.
Granules & Snacks
Dried fruit, nuts, candy, gummies, oatmeal, cereals via 10/14-head multihead weigher.
Pet Food
Kibble and treats in resealable zipper stand-up pouches from 100 g to 1 kg.
Seasoning & Food Mixes
Bouillon, soup mixes, sauces bases — SUS304 contact parts for food safety compliance.
HFFS vs Premade Pouch Machine vs VFFS: Which Is Right for Zipper Pouches?
| HMK-1600 (HFFS, roll film) | Premade Pouch Machine | VFFS Bagger | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Packaging material cost | Project-specific — compare roll film, zipper, tooling and startup scrap | Project-specific — compare supplied-pouch price, storage and handling | Project-specific — compare roll film, zipper capability, tooling and accepted output |
| Zipper / resealable closure | Applied in-line, dedicated zipper seal station | Comes on the pouch (paid for in pouch price) | Difficult; zipper VFFS adds cost and slows output |
| Bag appearance | Excellent — double hot + soft side sealing, gusseted stand-up shape | Excellent — premade quality | Basic pillow / gusset bags; stand-up shape limited |
| Size changeover | Recipe on HMI, servo adjusts film pull automatically | Change pouch stock + mechanical width adjust | Change forming tube (mechanical part swap) |
| Supply chain risk | One film roll to source | Dependent on premade pouch converter lead times | One film roll to source |
| Best for | Brands running steady volume of resealable stand-up pouches who want lowest cost/bag | Many SKUs, small runs, frequent artwork changes | Simple pillow bags at high speed, lowest machine budget |
Rule of thumb: if you produce more than ~300,000 zipper pouches per year in a stable size range, the HMK-1600’s film savings typically pay back the machine-price difference versus a premade pouch machine within 12–24 months. Below that volume, look at our premade pouch packing machines instead — and our engineers will tell you honestly which side of the line you fall on.

Zipper Pouch Packing Machine — Frequently Asked Questions
The HMK-1600 forms three bag types from roll film: zipper doypacks (resealable stand-up pouches), standard doypacks and flat bags. Optional modules add tear notches, euro slot hanging holes and rounded corners.
It runs 20–50 bags per minute depending on product flowability and pouch size. Doypack range is 80×120×(22+22) mm minimum to 160×280×(40+40) mm maximum, with fill volumes up to 1000 ml.
The machine has two filling stations and accepts auger screw fillers for powders, multihead weighers for granules and snacks, measuring cups for free-flowing products, and piston pumps for pastes. Screw elevators, dust removers and checkweighers are available as options.
Compare both routes on the same confirmed pouch, product, output and acceptance basis. Include film or supplied-pouch price, zipper and tooling scope, startup scrap, labor, storage, changeover loss and accepted output before choosing the lower-total-cost route.
